We are pleased to partner with Oakwood to manage the serviced residences at OUE Downtown and bring to life our vision for this exciting new development.”

The opening of Oakwood Premier OUE Singapore will be our second property in this great city. This has been an amazing year for Oakwood Asia Pacific. Our accelerated pace of development saw us adding 26 percent to the existing portfolio of Oakwood Asia Pacific in 2016 alone, and we expect to continue on this blistering pace over the next few years.”
